Sad to see

Makes the heart feel heavy seeing those pics - loved that place, and it'll always feel like our home - Eastlands is a great stadium and all that, but it doesn't have the same spark - yet!

Any 80's pics of Maine Road?

If it's pictures of Maine Road your after get a copy of the excellent Farewell to Maine Road book by Gary James. It has loads of pictures taken in and around Maine Road over the decades. Plenty from the 50's, 60's,70's,80's and 90's. It has the only colour pictures taken from the Ballet on Ice game in 1967. Truely worth every penny.

Thanks for the comments. When we published the book we got a bit of criticism from a few fans who didn't like the back cover - we used images of the old ground looking a bit derelict/ready for demolition. It was too much for some to see! Amazon's page on Farewell To Maine Road shows the back cover as one of the images.

The book also contains the only known images of the old stadium being built - it took an awful lot to find them.
